Drafted by the Atlanta Falcons with the 59th overall pick out of Iowa in the 2005 NFL Draft, Babineaux came into the league wreaking havoc. His impressive size, standing 6-foot-2 and weighing every bit of 300 pounds, made him a great run stopper. However, he was capable of more than just swallowing up running backs, as he began to develop the ability to get to the quarterback and notched impressive sack numbers for a defensive tackle after his first few seasons in the league.
Babineaux’s best year was most likely 2009, where he notched six sacks, his career high, and 37 total tackles.
